As with David, our response to sin should involve confession, grace and transformation.

When one of my students does something bad and gets caught, there’s a number of different reactions that you can see. It depends on the student, on the teacher, and on what they’ve done.

The Tragedy Of Covered Sin

Contributed by Daniel Olukoya on Nov 24, 2011

Sin is a fact of life and is the most horrible thing in the universe. In fact, if it was not for the issue of sin, Jesus had no business dying. Sin is so terrible that God had to surrender his own Son as a scapegoat so that He could be dealt with to elimi

This week, we are looking at the message entitled, “The tragedy of covered sin.” One of the most serious verses in the Bible is found in Proverbs chapter 28 verse 13: “He that covereth his sins shall not prosper but he that confesseth and forsaketh them shall have ...read more

Advocate

Contributed by Don Campbell on Feb 21, 2023

When we examined the word "atonement," we discovered that the idea of compensation is paramount in the Old Testament. In the New Testment we discovered that Jesus is the compensation for our sins, and to offer anything else is to insult the Spirit of grace.

ADVOCATE Last week we examined the word atonement, and we found that the word is rooted in the Old Testament, where one who committed sin had to offer a sacrifice to compensate for the sin. We closed with 1 John 2:1-2, as translated by the NIV My dear children, I write this to you so that you ...read more

The Curse Of Hidden Sins

Contributed by Howard Parnell on Oct 7, 2002

Many are under the misconception that they can get away with trying to hide their sin from God. The story of Achan illustrates the fallacy of that kind of thinking.

THE CURSE OF HIDDEN SINS Prov. 28:13 INTRO. You will never get by with covered-up sin. Sin that is unconfessed, sin that is unlamented, sin with an alibi, sin that is excused, sin with no self-judgement, is certain to bring the wrath of a holy and righteous and angry God! It would be smart for ...read more

Coming Clean

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 8, 2025

Psalm 32 is a good introduction to the idea of confession. It’s a primer on penitence, the ABC’s of contrition. It teaches us why we should confess our sins, how to do so, and what we get out of it.

We live in a confessional culture. It’s been called the "Urge to Purge." Or even "Psychic Bulimia." I can remember back when Phil Donahue was shocking. But these days the things people have to display to get on Jerry Springer or Sally Jessie Raphael hardly raise an eyebrow in ...read more
